Sup. You need someone from off the bench?
It all starts to blur after your 10,000th lay-off.
Why not. Sounds interesting

Personally, no. I won’t work for private prisons, meat, fossil fuels or tobacco. But that’s just my opinion; everyone has to make their own decisions.
I agree. For me it’s a moral issue based on what I’ve read about private prisons. No one wins.
Chicago privatized their parking in the city for like a billion dollars and now they regret it. It’s like selling your soul and the souls of your community to the devil. They are literally profiting my taking away someone’s freedom.
If they asked you to build a strategy to increase revenues what would you do? What would that deck look like? Who wins in that situation, repeat business is a soulless way to make money.
There is an article about a judge and a probation officer that went to prison for getting kickbacks for every offender they sent to prison. How did they increase their pay?They lied in court, planted fake evidence and conspired to prey on the poor that could not afford lawyers. Guess why they did it? To increase the prison population for profit.🤦🏽♀️
I don’t want my friends and family to be part of this business model. NO WAY.
Your decision....

Depends on the specific project, but I don't have anything philosophically against private prisons in general, so I'd likely take the project as long as the specific project isn't objectionable.

The list of industries/companies I won't do work in is pretty short. Predatory pharma, orgs that offer abortion, payday lenders, orgs that violate civil liberties
Just make sure you don’t become a client of theirs
